{"product_id":"shes-got-a-way-love-songs-1","title":"She's Got a Way: Love Songs","description":"As one of the biggest-selling artists of all time, perhaps it was only a matter of time before Billy Joel was subjected to a romantically themed collection, and so came She's Got a Way: Love Songs, released just in time for Valentine's Day 2013. This 18-track collection reveals an odd truth about Joel: he didn't write all that many love songs. A few of his biggest hits are love songs but only a few: the early song \"She's Got a Way,\" which wasn't a hit until its Songs in the Attic incarnation in the early '80s; \"Just the Way You Are,\" an unabashedly romantic soft rock staple that helped make him a star in the mid-'70s; \"This Is the Time,\" a gently nostalgic song from The Bridge; \"The Night Is Still Young,\" an added cut to 1986's Greatest Hits, Vols. 1 \u0026amp; 2. And that's about it. Other hits here aren't really love songs -- \"She's Always a Woman\" is too nasty to be romantic (\"she'll carelessly cut you and laugh while you're bleedin'\"), \"Honesty\" isn't about love, nor is \"An Innocent Man\" -- and that's why this compilation relies so heavily on album tracks, usually from early Billy Joel albums. That is where Joel wrote about love, when he had a \"Travelin' Prayer\" and declared to his lover \"You're My Home.\" He had other love songs later, including \"Shameless,\" which Garth Brooks turned into a standard, but the overall impression left by She's Got a Way is that love songs are not Billy's forte. Which isn't to say this isn't an enjoyable collection: there are many good songs here -- all the aforementioned tunes, along with \"Until the Night\" -- and it's a good collection of Joel's moodier, slower, melodic numbers. It just doesn't quite deliver on the romance it promises. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47525350179103,"sku":"888751185920","price":10.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/04918864b0e6e28ecada6e973403a76d_8c2f3690-6a38-4a9f-b899-26684e62128b.jpg?v=1780835311","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/shes-got-a-way-love-songs-1","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
